Starting the weekend off with a road game in Shal- low Lake squaring off against the second place Crushers, the Lancers' hard work and fast paced play proved to be too much for the competition. The game was a back and forth bat- tle, with goals coming from rookie Jamie Miller, Shawn Moore and veteran Matt McClinchey, as well as solid goaltending from Jamael Jack - lin, giving the Lancers a 3-2 lead late in the game. With only minutes left in regulation, however, the Crushers scored to tie the game, but the Lancers fought back and reclaimed the lead with Matt McClinchey scoring his second of the night with less than a minute to play. McClinchey's goal would stand as the game winner, earning the Lancers their first win of the season. On Saturday night the Lanc- ers hosted the Shelburne Muskies, hoping to carry over the momentum from Friday night's game. The game got off to a slow start with no scoring from either side for most of the first period. The Lancers, keep- ing with their fast paced play, drew a penalty after the mid- point of the period giving them their first powerplay of the game. With the man advan- tage the Lancers would take the first lead of the game with a nifty one -timer from Jamie Miller. As the game progressed, the continued stellar play of Jacklin between the pipes as well as the hard work from the rest of the Lancers team led to a 3-0 lead late in the third period. Scoring for the Lancers was again Jamie Miller (his third of the weekend) and Matt McClinchey (also his third of the weekend). The Muskies would go on to score one (questionable) goal before the end of the period, but were unable to come up with a solution to putting the puck past Jacldin. The game would end a final 3-1 in favour of the Lancers, earning the team a much needed 4 points. Assists went to Brett Phillips, Evan Rivett, Rick Andrew with three, Tanner Simpson with two, and Chase Chapman. Both games were played with great effort by all team members and a total commit- ment to a team game. The Lancers also raised over $800 for Prostate Cancer Research!!! Thank you to all the support. Pictures of the players can be found on the team's facebook page. The Lucknow Tykes enter- tained the crowd Saturday night during the first intermis- sion and the Lancers wish to thank them for their support and motivation. The Lancers next home game is Saturday December 13 against Elora. The Lancers will attempt to carry on their win- ning streak next weekend, Fri- day December 5th in Durham against the Thunder Cats.
